I’ve heard stars
Give humans names
Because they have lots of time
While drifting through space
It’s curiously amusing
Imagining we’d even register
That realm of thought
We can see them
On clear, dark nights
Sparkling bright
Hung upon the contrasting curtain
Of other worldliness
How well do they see us in return?
Who knows…
But don’t you wonder like me
What they chose to call you?
Of course in reversology
Wise earthlings might say...
(To any number of interested individuals),
“There are infinite numbers of stars
For us to gaze upon
Why not choose one to follow
Through your life, name it what you will
And make an occasional wish too!”
